| Outline of Research at the Start |
I will focus on the investigation of topological mismatches (disclinations) caused by kinks by employing tools from solid mechanics and calculus of variations with the goal of elucidating the overall effect of kinks and disclinations on the materials strengthening.

| Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
Developed a numerical code based on the Finite Element Method for a micro-plasticity model of metal alloys (elastic crystals). Computed numerical solutions to uniaxial traction tests of rectangular structures with square or hexagonal lattice symmetries. Discovered that kinks emerge due to interplay of structural vs. material instabilities and kink morphologies strongly depend on lattice symmetry and aspect ratio. Developed an analytical theory to describe self-similar microstructures in elastic crystals as the solutions to differential inclusion problems in non-linear elasticity. As an application, obtained exact constructions and energy estimates of elastic deformations causing disclinations. Developed the first mathematically rigorous theory for the modeling of planar wedge disclinations by characterizing the Gamma-limits of a discrete model on the triangular lattice. Computed energies and lattice displacements causing disclination and analyzed their behavior as the lattice spacing vanishes, thus characterizing the energetics of large samples with disclinations. Computed exact solutions to a fourth order model for surface diffusion and obtained exact effective energies in soft polymers with low order states.
